1970 Galaxie 500 2 Door Fastback

Body 63B

1970 Galaxie 500 2 Door Hard-top, Sportsroof, 390 engine, 2V, C6 trans, factory air, factory AM radio, front and rear bench seats, manual windows, power steering and power brakes with factory front disc.

-I have all of the interior and exterior trim, except for the carpeting, antenna and the Galaxie 500 emblems that go on the rear quarters. The front bench seats and the dash are still in the car, but the rest was taken out. The seats will need to be re-covered and the dash is cracked in the middle.

-The exterior trim has been polished. The front bumper is in great shape and the rear is in good shape.

-The door handles are off the car and are pitted and should be replaced.

-The weather-stripping is in okay shape, interior is in good shape except the floor in the driver’s foot-well is rusting out, new trunk gasket still in the package, I also have the floor mats, hubcaps and the factory bumper jack.

-The exterior bodywork is about 80% complete. The hood, trunk lid and cowl vent were dipped and primed. The rest of the body has been cleaned up and straightened out. New quarter patch panels and new door bottoms were put on about 6 years ago along with a trunk pan removed from a 1969 Arizona car. The taillight housings and lenses are in great shape. The side marker lights and turn signal lights are in good shape.

-The frame very rusted.

- -The interior is Medium Blue. The exterior was Medium Blue but black and gray primer now.

-The fuel tank was removed and cleaned. It will need a new float for the fuel gauge to work correctly. It shows full now, but I’m not using the tank and I have the line disconnected and use a small gas can under the hood when I have to move the car.

-The engine runs and the car will drive.

-left rear wheel bearing, front brake pads, rear brake shoes and ignition coil replaced 7 years ago along with some of the brake lines.

-The tires are worn, but hold air. The wheels, including the spare, are the factory steel wheels and need to be cleaned up if they are going to be used.

-It does need new A-arm bushings and the power steering return line.

Toyota, Ford decide to end hybrid collaboration before it starts

Tue, 23 Jul 2013

Not all so-called Memorandum of Understanding pacts end in actual collaborations. For instance, after a two-year "feasibility study," Toyota and Ford have just announced that they will not be developing hybrid systems for use in light trucks and SUVs as previously planned, and the two automakers will instead continue to develop their own hybrid technology independently.
The would-be collaboration was first announced in August of 2011, and would have seen a rear-wheel-drive hybrid platform that would "improve the efficiency of trucks and SUVs while still allowing them to be driven in the way customers expect," according to our initial post on the topic.
Keep in mind that this announcement isn't to say we shouldn't expect hybrid pickups and SUVs from the two automakers, but that they probably aren't coming very soon - Ford says it will have a system "before the end of this decade" and we haven't heard much from Toyota on the hybrid truck front since the 2008 A-BAT Concept (pictured above) - and that they will not share any components between them (and they never have, for what it's worth).

Solid axle? What solid axle?
I was fully prepared to embark on a seven-day journey down a rabbit hole of broken bolts, internet hearsay and consternation.
This should not have gone this easily. Having a long and checkered history of simple projects punctuated by much wailing and gnashing of knuckles, I was fully prepared to embark on a seven-day journey down a rabbit hole of broken bolts, internet hearsay and consternation when I finally decided to lay hands on the '89 Mustang with the goal of relieving the car of its stock rear axle. Instead, it took less than a full morning's worth of work to carve the old 7.5-inch solid axle from its moorings and mock up something, well, different.

Ford demonstrates Mustang's new Line Lock burnout feature

Tue, 22 Apr 2014

Been saving your pennies for a 2015 Ford Mustang? Put in a few extra shifts or some overtime? Got a great down payment ready? Well, however much you saved for your new pony car, start saving more - you'll need the extra money to spend on tires.
That's because the Mustang will come with a system called Line Lock, which can lock the front brakes electronically, allowing drivers to perform big, dumb, smoky burnouts without moving so much as an inch. It's sort of like launch control, only the average driver might actually use it.
Now, line locks aren't uncommon, particularly in drag racing. Usually, a flip of the switch locks the front brakes. The Mustang, besides offering the system from the factory which is unique in and of itself, looks a bit more involved.
